Welcome to Trace
Trace is an AI assistant for small businesses. It brings your email, documents, and the pages you read into one private memory of your work, builds a personal memory of facts about you as you go, and acts on your behalf: answering from what you know, and carrying out multi-step tasks on the web inside its built-in browser.
What makes Trace different
General-purpose AI assistants start from zero in every conversation. Trace starts from your work:
- It remembers pages, not just URLs. Every page you visit is indexed with its full text, an AI summary, and a semantic embedding, so you can search it later by meaning, not just by title.
- It learns who you are. Facts about you, like your job, your interests, and things you're currently working on, are extracted automatically from what you read and say, and used to make the AI sidebar and skills relevant without you repeating yourself.
- It can act, not just answer. The navigation agent can fill in forms, compare prices across sites, and complete multi-step tasks in Trace's built-in browser by describing what you want in plain language.
Note:
Everything above works locally by default. Trace does not require an account or a cloud subscription to be a real, fully-featured assistant: see Choosing your AI for how local and cloud AI compare.
